Thierry la Fronde

In 2018, the French publisher Regards launched Thierry la Fronde, a single-issue comic that reimagines the classic medieval outlaw tale for a modern audience. The series, associated with creators who bring a fresh, character-driven sensibility to the material, distills the swashbuckling spirit of its source into a concise, self-contained story. While brief, it matters as a contemporary take on a beloved French folk hero, offering a snapshot of how classic adventures are being reinterpreted in the 21st-century comics landscape.
